I ordered a butt load of stuff to attempt Rattle and Hum's endeavor.
I live in Hawaii and shipping is insane.
I ordered a ton of hazmat products and had it shipped from this website(link), and it only cost $6 flat rate to ship it all. Plus no tax.
Cheaper than Jamestown Distributors. Some stuff was half price of West-Marine.

All of my supplies came in, with some shipping issues.
1. They forgot to include my gallon of West system resin. So I had to go to west marine and pay $105+tax, vice the $74.95 I spent online.
2. One of my Colod silica containers ruptured, so I had everything in that box coated with a white powder.
3.Every can was dented in some way, but no can leaked, and I forgot how expensive that brush converter was.

I've ordered stuff (epoxy, filler, polyurethane, bottom paint, etc.) from Defender via mail order. They celephane wrapped every container, surrounded each with bubble wrap, then sealed each in a baggie. They then put the containers in shipping boxes with peanuts.

The Defender prices have been competitive with most anyplace I've found.

They contacted me within an hour of my email regarding the oversite. The customer servive rep said he'd refund the money and it was a miracle that nothing was damaged during shipping to Hawaii. He said something always breaks escpecially how fragile my order was. BTW everything was packed with peanuts and dividers and cellophane.
I'd still go with them again.
